Abstrakt: | Remimazolam is an ultrashort acting intravenous sedative-hypnotic approved for procedural sedation. We report a series of 8 cases of radiographically placed gastrostomy tubes using remimazolam as the sole anesthetic agent. Interventional radiology (IR) gastrostomy tube placement entails anesthetizing often complex patients in a nonoperating room environment. All 8 patients reported here underwent successful gastrostomy tube placement without the need for conversion to general anesthesia. Remimazolam is a feasible option to sedate patients for gastrostomy tube placement in the IR suite. Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflicts of interest.
